Poem -
Empty
Is it glamour you seek, fool?
Alas, tis mΓ₯ngata in pool.
Idle splendor, see it slips.
Through agile fingertips
Glow, glorious but vain,
Orb recedes, illusions remain.
Allure tis superficial vice,
Romanced fateful entice.
Silly water designs path,
Ebbing tides pliant wrath.
Are you like insipid sea?
Enthralled by beauty?
Yearning, only skin deep?
Tis that desires you keep?
Envying enchanted night
Luster fades by daylight
Reclaiming myth at dusk,
Though Luna hollow husk.
It but lavish token be,
Heart and soul are empty.

thank you, Neville. I've been a little disillusioned as of late for all the poetry I've been reading and others are not returning the favor so I appreciate that you are very good at commenting thank you

Hey DARKLY!!....this is right up my alley.....love this subject matter.....in fact I have a poem called the "Hollow Moon" that deals with it too (sort of)......I like the staccato nature of the delivery you have employed here it adds to the compelling-ness of this piece......and gives it a VERY pleasing aspect when read aloud!!......ALL STARS! & PINNED!!......enjoyed this dear poet sister!!......LOVE & ROCKETS!!.......T xoΒ : )
